Protecting Your Vessel at Sea

March 28, 2017admin

“The sea has never been friendly to man”, wrote Joseph Conrad in 1906. “At most it has been an accomplice to human restlessness”. All those who choose to make their living or their leisure on the sea understand this to be true, and this is, of course, where the insurers step in! At Morgan Marine Insurance we understand the risks the sea can pose, and how to mitigate against your losses.

Boats, ships and yachts are expensive pieces of equipment, and insuring them is not something to be undertaken lightly. Fortunately, we at Morgan Marine Insurance have nearly thirty years of experience in providing tailored insurance cover for all kinds of sea-going vessel, wherever in the world you may find yourself.

We were one of the first companies in the UK to provide Jet ski and Personal Watercraft Insurance. Although there is no specific law requiring jet skis to have insurance, the majority of private lakes, launching facilities and clubs will require it as a condition of use, and accidents are common, making it a sensible option to get a policy. We offer low-cost quotes, with discounts allowed for those who have successfully completed the RYA Personal Watercraft Course as well as for data-tagged craft.

Or at the other end of the pleasure craft spectrum, we have developed a bespoke wording for high value Super Yachts that takes into account the variety of conditions in which most large yachts, regardless of size or value, can operate, and which can be adapted to include skipper/charter use to help cover running costs for those using their craft as a source of business income.

Of course, life is not all about leisure, sadly enough. Which is why we can also provide competitive cover for anything from trawlers to passenger ferries, with all policies fully adaptable to suit your own requirements, regardless of the size of your business.

We understand that of prime importance to our customers is timelessness, accuracy and a fast response when dealing with claims, and as a small, client-driven group of insurance professionals committed to fairness and integrity, we have established a reputation for providing all these things. Contact us today for a quote, and be assured that we can cater to all your marine insurance requirements, whatever they may be.
